You ROCK! Haven't seen the Royal Gorge Bridge in 50 yrs. A stunner! What a great video. Thanks much. 🎉
Russ is not afraid of heights!
Thank you Russ for the longer video, All your videos should be a hour or two hours long. I do not know how you can show any thing in 20 min. You do a great job.

I second it. Your new format with long vídeos and several stops is probably easier for you to edit. Filming and editing in one day will burn you out. So whatever it takes to keep you sharp, healthy, and not stress out over a deadline, is ok with me. Thank you Russ.
Excellent, great video tour⭐️⭐️😎🤩
wow Russ its been 4 yrs time flies! guess about same for me. I rafted thru there it looked like the train could barely fit on that track & from below looked more like 2ooo ft up, thanks to you I've seen from the top now! was there 2yrs ago have good friend lives 10 min from RGB got to go visit him soon! & that hwy 50 1 of the best drives in the country.. got to catch up on so many of your videos! thanks for continuing the travels!! be safe....have FUN!
Very nice video. Where there is snow in the winter, there is water in the summer. Colorado is a proof of that. Not my favorite State but worth a sightseeing trip anyway !! RICHARD
Thanks for crossing Royal Gorge Bridge off my bucket list .
I came down from Salida through the Monarch Pass. I stopped and climbed way up to the just about the top of that road behind the store. Also got a cool TShirt there! Love that place! ❤️

Very cool!
When we were out there, we saw rafters way down on the river. We also rode the Royal Gorge Railroad through the Gorge, under the bridge! It was cool!
There is no way i will drive that road with no guardrails. I'm so glad you invite all of us to ride along in your van. Thanks for the video, Russ.
Thanks for the ride Russ. As always, I am enjoying the views, from your cameras.
Hi Russ! When we walked across the bridge, there were gaps in the planks, and you could look straight down. Heckuva view! Really like your longer videos when you’re on your travels. Thank you for your hard work, research & editing time.
That was a fantastic video ! Such beautiful scenery! Thank you Russ😊
Beautiful photography, Russ! We were just there walked the RGB on July 28th this year. Sorry we missed you. Would have said hi 👋 and took a selfie with you!!! ❤

Very cool!
Spectacular drive along the river. Thanks for the cruise today.
Love to visit Colorado in the summer! But winter is a different matter. Ha ha. Thanks for the video, it was great! And I’ve seen a few things I missed on my travels. We rode our RZR over the Continental Divide on a Polaris sponsored trip out of a dispersed camping trip close to Taylor Lake. Was really fun. St Elmo’s and Pitkin were awesome.Thanks again Russ!!
Thanks for the trip to the RGB. I bypassed it 20 years ago because the AAA tourbook showed me the price. I instead took rt 92 through Black Canyon of the Gunnison Natl Park. More scenic on 2 wheels. Scared me to death. 😱😱 I did enjoy taking the trip with you. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
You did it again. Excellent video. My husband and I feel like we're there. Thanks and stay safe.😊
My second comment on this video Russ. Again this scenery is just beautiful, but at 74, I believe that I will leave the rapids, for the younger people, but I might enjoy a more leisurely ride, on a calmer river, with no rapids.

Always look forward to your videos. Thank you
Thank you, Russ for the awesome job! Monarch Pass and Royal Gorge was absolutely beautiful! Your touring is so pleasant. Colorado is breathe taking! ❤🎉❤
Another beautiful trip. I love all the different viewpoints you offer with your selection of cameras. safe travels.
Awesome video Russ.... Thanks for always taking us along !!!
Wow! You’re really zipping along ! Hope I can keep up think I fell behind a bit !
Always an adventure riding along with you Russ thanks
The rails you saw at the Royal Gorge Bridge are the remains of a slant railway that used to take tourists to the bottom of the canyon where you could overlook the rail line. There is an interesting rail bridge that is hung from the side of the canyon. I took it to the bottom in the 1970s. There was a fire that damaged it and they have never repaired it.
I remember crossing that in moms 61 Plymouth fury 🙂
i’m watching 10 months after first aired. I’m trying to catch up. It is so much fun seeing everything that I watch them more than once. I am looking forward to the new season. I saw the first one Saturday of New Mexico. It was fun to see those people rafting on the river.
Like the longer video great time. Also great view good job of great filming. Thanks for all you do.👍
Thanks!
awesome Russ, greeting from the Netherlands
Terrific Russ very nice ride through that pass and the bridge was certainly worth seeing Another cool journey. Here in Pa it's been in the 80s really not bad for me. Well thanks for the ride along again. Take care.
Hi Russ, wow ! Thanks for letting me take this trip with you over the Gorge. Carry a ziplock bag with a nice cold wash cloth to cool your face. It helps. Take care. God loves you and so do I. 🙏🏻
Colorado native, here. My second favorite place on earth, Salida to Canon City!
Totally awesome ❤
If you are ever out this way again, there is a train ride you can go on that starts in Canon City and goes up the Royal Gorge Canyon under the RGB and stops at the west end of the canyon and then you go back into Cannon City.
Thanks Russ you saved me $35. I remember watching a documentary about the last run of a steam engine heading west on that line, it follows the river up towards Leadville then it ended up on the the line that follows the Colorado river, toward Utah.
The vibration on that bridge is from the wind causing the cables to vibrate. it's the same on the Golden Gate Bridge. Love this channel.🌉
💚👋Now checking out this route of Colorado. No words except, having your camera's mounted on the van FABULOUS❣️🤗 💯👍💯👍SAFE TRAVELS
The Arkansas River was beautiful . Thank you so much for being a guide to places I never thought I would see .
Great video. That bridge is really expensive but thats the way everything is now. Should try the helicopter tour of the bridge, its great.
When I was there in 2007 you could still drive across the bridge, it was full of tourists and cars going as slow as the tourists and nudging their way across the bridge, it was really something to stand at one end of the bridge and watch a car enter the other end and create a wave in the bridge that you could watch come toward you and then go under your feet and lift you up a foot or two as it passed under you, it was quite a thrill! The tram used to run at the time and you could take it down to the river in the morning and fish all day if you wished and then take the tram back up in the evening. What a place!
The first time we went there we drove across the bridge.
I'm really loving this Colorado journey! If I ever get to Colorado, with all of that beautiful scenery, I will probably pass on seeing that bridge for $35, now that I've seen it through your lens. However, these videos really make me want to go see Colorado. I've never been there, before. On my bucket list, now. Thanks for taking us along!
Hey Russ! GOTTA LOVE COLORADO! As I mentioned before, I spent many years in Colorado as a Pro Ski Patrol and Firefighter, and loved every minute of it! Had to leave to take care of Mom for a few years. Now that she’s passed, I plan to get back to God’s Country! I really do miss it! Gonna follow you all the way through Colorado and beyond. Great vid and content! God Bless, Brotha! 😎🇺🇸
What you won't do for your viewers! Bet ya slept great that night, but what a pricey ordeal. Here's a little bit to offset some of the bridge cost AND THANK YOU for saving me the trouble of going there myself. Nope.
Ditto on the Royal Gorge Railroad! Best train ride I have had in a long time. You get on in Canon City and ride directly under the Royal Gorge Bridge next to the Arkansas River. The food was fantastic. So much fun, will definitely be going there again!
Russ thanks for the awesome video 📸. I've never been there. Gorgeous scenery!!!! Safe travels
Russ there is a train ride. Goes through the gorge. What a great experience and incredible adventures I had there when my son and daughter in law lived in lone tree outside of Denver. Loved the garden of God's too in Colorado springs. Keep the great videos coming sir.
Need to take the train ride through the gorge some time !
we, the family were there in the mid 80s. we drove our vehicle over to the west. quite the experience.
💚👋 Haven't been to Laughlin in years, thanks for great updates and footage 💯👍
Thanks Russ... stay safe out there!
US 50 starts in the east coast at Ocean City Maryland, if my memory is correct.
My family was there in 1964 and took the incline down to bottom of canyon. I don't think they have it anymore. Then again in 1978 when they had the sky ride. Haven't been there since. Sure is expensive now and alot more to it. Doesn't look like you can drive on the bridge anymore. I did back in 78. Kind of scary. Thanks for the memories❤
Glad to see you made it back across that bridge Russ, before those 100 year old cables snapped, har har ahar 😂🤣😅
Down here in Mobile Alabama it has been 100 plus for a month with heat index 110
Way back in the early 80s we made a trip to Colorado. Ironically it was about this time of the year, first couple of weeks of August. We went through Monarch Pass working our way down to Farmington NM. I can remember standing at that Continental Divide sign, and it sleeted on us going through Monarch Pass. It was August and sleeting, we couldn't believe it.
Brilliant video Russ. I look forward to your videos every week. I`ll be heading to the states in 4 weeks and I`m looking forward to driving from Minneapolis to Fargo, Bismarck, Miles City, Billings and down into Yellowstone. On around from there to Jackson, Laramie, Cheyenne and up into Deadwood before heading back towards MInneapolis, again. I`m from Ireland........ Stay safe Russ........
Such beautiful scenery on the roadways you travel! Thanks for taking us along and really love seeing places I have never been! Just wondering...can you not take the drone up higher over the mountains? Just curious at what might be on some of the mountain tops! 😊 Blessings and stay safe on the roadways and in the heat!
Another amazing video. I lived in Colorado in the 1990s, but never made it to this part of the state. BTW, I do newsletters for my business and use Constant Contact. Not a free service, but a good product for the money and good customer service.
Kind of pricey, $89, but you can book a ride on the Royal Gorge Route Railroad. Comes out of Canon City and runs along the river and stops right underneath the bridge. you get a real closeup view of the river rafters that way.
I like the Royal Gorge in between Washington Oregon. Thanks for sharing though
Hey Russ, I'm getting to this episode a little late, but it's still a great ride! I stayed in Gunnison a couple of years ago and my hotel room window looked straight out over Highway 50 heading out of town. Talk about an inviting view! The climb up and over Monarch Pass is really something--I think I prefer it to I-70. I've always wanted to get to the other side of the Royal Gorge but $35 was a bit much...so thanks for the virtual bridge walk and the fantastic views!
Just loved that drone footage you took 💕 way back when we went there and heard the price $$$ to “see” the bridge we walked right back around and saw everything we needed to for free😂.
Another great video. Almost bought a house in Salida about 25 years ago, very nice area.
Was out there in 1968 all of 12 years old then. We walked a crossed it and then drove a crossed it. Something to see. Don't think it cost $35 then. Another nice video, thanks.
Did you know that 50 percent of the headwaters of Colorado river is diverted through a tunnel going east
Fantastic video!! Thanks Russ!
I been there in 1983 it's still the same. Walked cross the bridge rode the tram down to the river.
Hey Russ!! Nice to see you!!
Russ loved this but gotta say i love black canyon more its fantastic and its free with you pass.😂😂
Nice job your doing.
It goes to Ocean City MD!!!
It was or maybe still is the highest suspension bridge in the world. Went there 50 years ago while visiting my Aunt and Uncle outside Salida.
Needed more video of the river at the George Bridge. Line for cable cars move quickly. It’s worth the hot wait. The canyon at Black Canyon is quite a site.
The highway is open my family went skying up there one Christmas in the 1990’s.
Awesome video!! I just saw Adam The Woo was just there at the gorge! Too babe you did ride on the Gondola .
I love watching your videos! I didn't know how many beautiful places there are in the beautiful USA until l started watching the videos! I would love to travel the Great USA like you are doing! Keep up the good work you are doing!
